Seems like as soon as I switch to active track - the DJI Go 4 app switches into auto exposure mode from manual and if the environment gets slightly brighter or darker - it adjusts and makes the footage completely useless. Am I missing something and there is a way to force it not to switch to auto exposure upon entering active track or did DJI software developers missed something?

Bogdan.

I thought I was crazy when this happened to me. I use manual settings always and when I used active track I noticed exposure compensation in my footage. This is really annoying! I hope it's fixed in the next FW update.

Please help confirm your aircraft model and APP version.
Also please upload a video showing the completely useless footage, thanks.

Closer to the end of the shot you will see the exposure adjusting.

In manual mode, the picture may too dark to start up the track, as a result, it will switch to auto mode automatically. While you can change it to manual and and adjust the exposure during the track.

Is it supposed to change camera format too.. because mine changes to 4k30, every time I use active track..
